A Lover In A Mask

Her cheeks were stained of roses,
Her hair like golden wheat
Although boys thought her beautiful,
She was anything but sweet
His words as smooth as silk,
His lips a sweet temptation
Though there was nothing sweet behind his face,
But cruel manipulation
Both lovers hid behind a mask,
Their eyes both seem serene
But something both of them found out,
Is no one's who they seem.
